Culinary Adventures - An Evening in Paris

Posted to: Events on Aug 24, 2018 Culinary Adventures - An Evening in Paris fluff photo

We call it a "FOODCATION"...

Half the experience of traveling the world is the food, but when life gets in the way and vacations are few and far between, don't let your palate and sense of adventure take a backseat. Take a journey of gastronomic proportions, global cuisine is not as far away as you think.

The last of the 2017 Culinary Adventures Dining Series took place on November 3rd, at our exclusive on-site venue, The Laurelbrook. "An Evening in Paris" complete with a giant Moulin Rouge windmill replica and authentic Can Can girl, Meme Khalaff, was met with rave reviews. The menu included both classic French cuisine, and unique interpretations created by award-winning Executive Chef, Rich Carter.
